Welcome aboard, !

Thank you for signing up to raise money for United Way of Merced County and for being bold enough to go Over the Edge!

You’re not just rappelling off a building. You’re helping fund real, life-changing programs that support people across Merced County, including:

  • VITA – Free tax preparation for working families, helping them keep more of their hard-earned refunds right here in Merced.

  • ECM Supportive Services – Ongoing health and life navigation for our most vulnerable neighbors on Medi-Cal. Our care managers walk alongside clients every step of the way, helping them find stable housing, access food, stay employed, and stay connected to doctors, nurses, and support systems across the Central Valley.

  • 211 Merced – A free, 24/7 confidential helpline connecting people to vital resources like housing, food, mental health care, and more—regardless of race, immigration status, or income level.

  • Language Care – In-person medical interpretation for emergency rooms and clinics across Merced County, making sure language is never a barrier to receiving lifesaving care.

🎒 We've put together a Rappelling Toolkit to help you get started with fundraising, outreach, and promotion:

You’re doing something amazing, and we’re proud to have you on the ropes with us.

Let’s do this—together.
